Where can I find habits for the Sisters of Charity order? The play requires two characters to dress in these distinctive gowns and bonnets.

You might try contacting some of the ladies listed in the Palmetto Soldiers Relief Society ( http://www.psrs-csa.com/reviewoflatestevents.htm - Palmetto Soldiers Relief Society: - scroll down to "The Traveling Nuns Go Shopping" article). Apparently there are several who portray Sisters of Charity in Civil War reenactments - maybe they can give you some leads, tips, patterns...
